12 Interesting Twitter Posts About Reopening Schools
School board: It's completely safe for kids to go back to school. Teachers: So you met in person to discuss this? School board: LMAO, what are you, nuts? Of course not.
School reopening has become one of those topics that can turn a casual conversation into a full argument. Parents, teachers, and officials all seem to be looking at the same situation and coming away with very different conclusions.
That tension is exactly what makes these Twitter reactions so sharp. Some are sarcastic, some are frustrated, and some point out the double standards people keep noticing as schools try to reopen.
